This YouTube world we live in is great because of its accessibility to great moments in motion video. I always knew that Charlie Chaplin was great but was not that aware of his work. This must go down as one of the great speeches of film. Sends shivers down the spine.

My favorite line:

Our knowledge has made us cynical,
our cleverness hard and unkind.
We think too much and feel too little
